110 Queries !
Mad Dog Dj:
Well iv finaly sorted the motor,stripped the 2.5 put it back together with a mate and now it running better than ever.
On to the suspension now.
Looking to get it sitting level,would like a little lift from the original height,but not to the extent that i will need to spend a fortune ironing out all the issues that come with +2 lifts and above.
Read through many forums about this and just getting more confused by the contradicting and product biased opinions.
So if anyone can give me some good advice it will be much appretiated.
I wont be doing serious comps in the 110,but i am off road a lot.
Looking for a strong reliable set up ,4 springs 4 shocks and bush kit.
Did read a post somewhere about using Landy Hd springs all round with a good shock,would this achieve what im looking for.
Thanks.
Sharpshooter:
Too be honest you dont want it sitting level. As soon as you start putting people and kit in the back, its going to go down. The 110 always seems to sit funny, but this is due to the larger payload. A csw should sit more level, as you have the extra weight of the seats and panels.
I had +2" britpart heavy duty springs, and procomp es9000 +2" shocks. But with home made relocation cones and rear seat mounts. Also had -2" rear shock mounts. Very nice setup, and i never managed to get the wheels of the ground. :D

Thanks for the reply .
I was looking at the Britpart kits.
Did you have to change anything else,
break lines,caster arms etc or did it work without issues.
Most of the bushes are perished and was wondering what kit to fit .
Was thinking of Deflex .
Sharpshooter:
I did fit a +4" rear brake hose. But the fronts were more than long enough. Front props last about 6000mls, but you could get a wider angled one.I didnt bother with cranked or castor arms. But if your doing lots of miles, i think they are worth thinking about. I had genuine ploybushes all round. I have heard thay Deflex are not as good as the original bushes. If your going poly, buy genuine polybushes. They cost more, but are 10 times better.
Mad Dog Dj:
Thanks for the info.
